Call for Papers 4th International Conference on Web Delivering of Music, WEDELMUSIC 2004 Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain 13th-15th September 2004
http://www.upf.edu/wedelmusic2004/ http://www.wedelmusic.org/
Content distribution is presently not anymore limited to music and is becoming more
cross media oriented. New distribution models for old and new content formats are
opening new paths: i-TV, mobile phones, PDAs, etc. The development of the Internet
technologies introduces strong impact on system architectures and business processes. New national and international regulations, policies and market evolution are
constraining the distribution mechanisms. Novel distribution models, development
and application of pervasive computing and multimedia strongly influence this multi-
disciplinary field. The need of content control and monitoring is demanding effective
Digital Rights Management (DRM) solutions integrated with sustainable business and
transaction models. These technologies impact on the production and modelling of
cross media content.
WEDELMUSIC-2004 aims to explore these major topics in cross media field, to address
novel approaches for distributing content to larger audiences, providing wider access
and encouraging broader participation. The impact of these developments on cultural
heritage is also considered, together with their availability to people with limited access to content.
The conference is open to all the enabling technologies behind these problems. We
are promoting discussion and interaction among researchers, practitioners, developers,
final users, technology transfer experts, and project managers.

--Protection formats and tools for music

Call for PARTICIPATION 3rd Open Workshop MUSICNETWORK, Munich, March 2004 MPEG AHG on Music Notation Requirements 13-14 of March 2004, Munich, Germany
http://www.interactivemusicnetwork.org http://www.dsi.unifi.it/~nesi/mpeg/MUSICNETWORK-OW-March-2004-Description-v1-4-clean.htm http://www.dsi.unifi.it/~nesi/mpeg/ahg-mn-65-66.html
located at: Technische Universität München, Germany: http://www.mpeg-68.de/location.php
The Open Workshop of MUSICNETWORK is at its third edition. The modeling ofmusic
notation/representation is a complex problem. Music representation can be used
for several different purposes: entertainment, music education, infotainment,
music archiving and retrieval, music querying, music production, music profiling,
etc. In the current Internet and Multimedia age many other applications are
strongly getting the market attention and most of them will become more diffuse
of the present applications in short time. End users have discovered the multimedia
experience, and thus, the traditional music models are going to be replaced by
their integration with multimedia, audio visual, cross media. At present, there is
a lack of Music Notation/Representation standard integrated with multimedia. The
aim of this workshop is to make a further step to arrive at standardizing a Music
Notation/Representation Model and Decoder integrated into the MPEG environment,
that presently can be regarded as the most active and powerful set of standard
formats for multimedia consumers.
The topics of the workshop are related mainly focused on:
--Music Notation/Representation requirements --Music Protection and Distribution --Music Description and its usage on Archive Query
Please Contribute with your work on the above topics, for details see the www site
of the workshop.
The access is be free of charge, supported by the European Commission. PLEASE MAKE THE REGISTRATION ON THE WWW OF THE MUSICNETWORK.
